<p>The tenders for green hydrogen and electrolyzer manufacturing were issued in July this year under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s (<a href="https://mnre.gov.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MNRE</a>) Tranche-I of the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) program.</p>
<p>Under the Green Hydrogen tender, the selected bidder is expected to set up production facilities in thousand metric tons (TMT) scale for green hydrogen production and its derivates.</p>
<p>The projects must be commissioned within 30 months of receiving the letter of award.</p>
<p>The average incentive discovered was based on the three-year incentive demanded by the companies in their proposals.</p>
<p>According to the source Mercom spoke to, the electrolyzer bids are still undergoing evaluation and are expected to be revealed later this month.</p>
<p>Mercom had previously <a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/adani-bhel-jsw-lt-bidders-green-hydrogen-electrolyzer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> on the overwhelming response the tenders had received in December 2023, following the opening of the technical bids.</p>
